Walmsley, 56, will be replaced by Luke Miels, currently GSK's chief commercial officer, the company said in a statement released on Monday.

While GSK achieved a number of strategic successes under Walmsley, including the spinoff of the consumer health care business Haleon, it has disappointed investors. GSK's shares rose 3.3% to 1534.50 pence in early trading, making it the biggest gainer on the London Stock Exchange.

GSK's shares fell 11% between April 1, 2017, when Walmsley became CEO, and last Friday.
